THE CHRONOLOGY OF THE END OF TIME
In this article we are not trying to give specific dates or we are assured of the certainty of truth. Jesus Christ said: "As to when that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son but the Father alone. "(Matthew 24, 36).
We do not provide dates or events leading up to the Lord's return to earth. Only a humble attempt to give the order of events leading up to the parousia, as already we see as very soon after, so that before the evidence of facts men straighten their sinful lives and prepare to receive the Lord with dignity in his second and final return to earth.
Scriptures dissent that important events for humanity come preceded by announcements prophetic: But the Lord GOD does nothing, but he revealed the secret to his servants the prophets. (Amos 3, 7)
God sends signs to various humble people to give greater credibility to His warnings. The fact that three children in rural Portugal, illiterate and totally ignorant of what happens in the world, recevoient message as widely as Fatima, is a clear sign that this revelation can not be the result of an invention of the minds imaginative.
This same arrangement is repeated with other apocalyptic apparitions whose content has prevented them were accepted by the Church. For this work we will be based on various prophecies of the past as those of Saint Malachy, and others much more recent, like those of La Salette, Garabandal, of El Escorial, Vassula and Akita.
The appearance of Bayside, New York, which is very similar to the previous ones, has been condemned by the Church, so we do not take into consideration.
PROBABLE DATE: 2033 or 2037
The prophecies about the Second Coming are not usually accepted by the Church. It is enough that any appearance made a reference to a concrete date for the end of time so that automatically be forgotten. Some, like Bayside, are condemned by their heterodox content. The rest is simply silent response. The Church not pronounce on them.
was what happened with the prophecies of St. Malachy. This Irish saint composed a prophetic list of the 113 popes who would follow their time around the year 1000, the end-time. At each of these popes he applied a short name hidden in it that would be a significant fact about himself or his reign. In the present year, 2006, Pope Benedict XVI is in the throne of St. Peter, according to the list of St. Malachy is the pope number 112. Therefore, only one more pope - Petrus Romanus, according to the list before parousia. Because it is too long to list them all, we only mention the surprising coincidences between the last three popes and the currency that was assigned by Abbot Maelmhaedhoc, the original Gaelic name of St. Malachy of Armagh. Pope 109 of the list was John Paul I: half of the moon. (From mediate luna)
Elected at the half-moon, John Paul I died 33 days later.
John Paul II was pope 110. The work of the sun. (De Labore Solis)
This pope from the East (Poland) is like the rising sun from the east. In addition to its role tireless traveler, as the sun provides all the good word (light), may make sun very hardworking. Born on the day of a solar eclipse, he was buried 8 April 2005, the day of eclipse.
Pope Benedict XVI is the 111. The glory of the olive. (De gloria Olivae), peace on the surface of the earth?
The last pope will be named Peter (derived from "Petra") and will be Roman (Petrus Romanus).
"In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church will sit Pierre Romain, who shall feed his flock amid many tribulations. These past tribulations, the city of seven hills will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge his people."
As we can see, if we entrust to the prediction of St. Malachy, the end of time is really imminent. There is only the current pope - Benedict XVI - before the beginning of disasters that will precede the return of the Son of Man to the Earth.
Now we try to clarify some dates. According to Benedict XVI expressed his step Cardinal, our time is characterized by a profusion of heavenly apparitions and signs of various types.
One of them occurred in 1961 in the English city of San Sebastian de Garabandal. This event is important for several indications. First, it is obvious parallelism with Fatima. The Blessed Virgin appears again in three children who still do not reach the age of ten. The message that communicates to them on one hand speaks of the general decay of religion: "Many priests, bishops and cardinals are on the road to perdition and lead many souls with them."
It expresses the extreme importance of the Eucharist: "It gives less importance to the Eucharist." and it requires more than prayer and sacrifice. In the second message, it explicitly notes that the widespread moral corruption will result in a "great punishment" which consist of "Fire will fall from heaven and consume two thirds of humanity."
Apparitions of Vassula lasted for several years. In this case, the seer Vassula Ryden is the wife of a Swedish diplomat and received messages in several countries, Bangladesh, Switzerland, Egypt, etc.. It receives messages through writing. Jesus Christ spoke through it with a majestic writing in which he repeated the messages of Garabandal. There is more, he says explicitly that:
I would remember what I asked you a few days ago. Make it known everywhere. Diffuse My Words: "I am the Lord, I bless my children of Garabandal." I want them to hear me. Oh! Vassula, as I have longed for this day! (13. October 1987).
That is to say, the appearance of Vassula is an explicit confirmation of the message of Garabandal.
Another appearance for twenty years was extended by Prado Nuevo de El Escorial, Spain. In this case, the seer - a humble woman called rural Amparo Cuevas - falls into a trance and talk it through Jesus Christ and Mary.
These appearances give the same arrangement of Garabandal: the world is facing a new Sodom and Gomorrah and will be punished in the same form that these two cities with a barrage of fire. Jesus Christ and Mary warn us of the urgent need to correct the course of the overall moral degeneration in which humanity is immersed. The request prayers and sacrifices is also constant before the imminent arrival of the end times.
These appearances are particularly important to me because I was personally Prado Nuevo and in this place I felt great to be in the presence of the Deity and more. Also I can personally certify a large amount of evidence worthy confidence on supernatural events produced in these apparitions.
An apparition that still speaks the same subject is Akita, Japan. A wooden statue begins to cry and an inner voice communicates with one of the sisters.
In this case, it is the Blessed Virgin who speaks to a deaf nun - perhaps a metaphor for the modern world of deafness to God's warnings. Another time the same message of Garabandal: otherwise change humanity will support a terrible punishment: a rain of fire. This appearance is particularly important for two reasons, first: it was validated by the Church, probably because it does not explicitly mention the end of time, but simply a punishment: "Fire will fall from heaven and consume a large part of humanity, sparing neither priests nor faithful. . And second, it was confirmed by the miraculous cure of his main seer, sister Agnes, who recovered hearing after deafness.
We could mention other appearances of great reputation, as the prophecy of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, Padre or that of Gobbi, or that of Heede and others affecting the same issue, but we prefer does not extend over the text with unnecessary duplication.
For all the above, I think it is not inconsistent to say the proximity of the end times.
If we extrapolate between Garabandal and Fatima, we can even venture to specify a date. The Blessed Virgin appeared to the shepherd children in 1917, and the main message of Fatima on the end of communism in the Soviet Union officially atheist ("Russia will be converted and there will be peace") was finally completed in 1989, year of the fall of the Berlin Wall. They have passed, so 72 years. The number 72 has significance symbolic period preceding a new phase completely different from the previous one.
Therefore, extrapolating these numbers to Garabandal, we would have that the Blessed Virgin appeared to three children in 1961, and after 72 years is: 2033. If we consider the date of the second appearance, 1965, the date of the end of time 2037.
LIGHTS OF GOD
We can ask why this behavior. Why God warns us of his intentions with decades of anticipation, and after the Arrangement pre-set in the Apocalypse.
One possible answer is in the singularity of this time. We are in the final time, that is to say, much of humanity - two-thirds by appearances - will see their truncated form of existence suddenly. If we consider that this earthly life is not more than the period proves that we must elect one of two destinies that await us - heaven or hell - it makes sense that God gives us special graces to confront this end. During a normal life of seventy or eighty years, we receive a succession of grace sufficient for salvation. If this life was truncated form by an unexpected massive cataclysm, it is necessary to concentrate these graces in a smaller period, making them more intense. The end of time will have a predetermined order, so that the facts, those souls who wish to find the truth of their lives change and regret for sin.
Here is a sermon of St. John Vianney:
"The historian Josephus tells us that before the destruction of Jerusalem, it seemed a long comet-shaped knife which threw consternation in the world . Everyone said: Alas, what does this sign? Perhaps it is some great misfortune that God will send us. The moon stayed eight nights without giving light, people seemed to have no longer live. Suddenly, he seemed a stranger, who for three years, did nothing to scream through the streets of Jerusalem on the day and night: "Woe to Jerusalem! Woe to Jerusalem! ... It is taken, beaten with rods to prevent her from screaming, nothing stops him. After three years, he exclaims: Oh! woe to Jerusalem ah Woe to me! A stone thrown by a machine falls on him and crushes at once. Then all the evils that this stranger had threatened Jerusalem fell on it. The famine was so great that mothers kill their children were going to use it for food. The inhabitants, without knowing why, should kill one another, the city was taken and destroyed as, the streets and squares were all covered with corpses and the blood flowed like rivers and the few who saved their lives was sold as slaves.
But as the day of reckoning will be the day the worst and most frightening ever, it will be preceded by signs so frightening that they will throw terror into the depths of the abyss. Our Lord tells us that in this unfortunate moment for the sinner, the sun will give more light, the moon will be like a mass of blood, and the stars shall fall from heaven. The air is so full of flashes that will be burned with fire, and we hear the thunderous noise which is so great that men will dry with fear on the soles of their feet. The winds will be so impetuous that nothing can resist them. Trees and houses are being drawn into the chaos of the sea, the sea itself is so agitated by storms, the waves that rise up to four cubits above the highest mountains, and they go down so low , we see the horrors of hell and all creatures, even inanimate annihilated seem to want to avoid the presence of their Creator, seeing how the crimes of men have stained and disfigured the earth. The waters of rivers and seas boiling oil as in the fires, the trees and plants torrents of vomit blood, earthquakes are so great that we will see the earth open on all sides ... " (The Holy Cure of Ars)
God is just, and His judgments are true. But at the same time He is merciful, and for this reason He gives many graces for sinners that they regret their sins and they can be saved. A form for this conversion is present to some atheists powerful evidence of the proximity of Judgement. For this reason, before the great punishment announced falls on this planet, there will be a dramatic warning in heaven for all humanity.
ALERT
In Garabandal undergo three consecutive phases to another: the warning, miracle and chastisement. As we already Dissoni above, if it's really the end of time, it is logical that people receive before death all the graces necessary for salvation. That is to say, any supernatural light that would normally be received during a normal life, will be received in less time, but much more intensely. It seems at least to the strategy designed by God, because children in Garabandal said explicitly that "God expects that, by this act of His Mercy, we will amend and we will turn to Him. . It does not seem easier than three children rustic little or no training could invent a story with these apocalyptic theological subtleties, more evidence of the veracity of the apparition of Mary. Men and women who eventually condemn in the end times, and all have received the special graces and lights they would have a normal life. Therefore, they can not argue that their conviction was the result of sudden death at the end of time and they lacked sufficient lights to find God. In this issue of the warning we found a new parallelism with Fatima. In the second secret of Fatima, Sister Lúcia told us that the Second World War broke out and it would also preceded by a warning: "When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign that God gives you, He will punish the world its crimes by means of war, hunger and persecution against the Church and the Holy Father. To prevent this, I will ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the communion of reparation on the First Saturdays. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted and there will be peace, otherwise it will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions against the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be destroyed. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, which will be converted and will be granted to world a period of peace. " "
The night of 25 January 1938, Sister Lúcia saw the bright red and sinister, that our Lady had warned that it would be great signal that God would" punish the world (...) through war "the following day, the strange phenomenon of" night light "apparently by aurora borealis colossal was published in various newspapers in Europe and North America. A few weeks later, in March of 1938, Austria was annexed by Hitler in Germany - an action which gave the beginning of the events that erupted in 1939 in the second war World.
It's really amazing these types of coincidences, but if we study history we have seen they are more common as may be thought. It is as if God wanted that great events have been announced to star.
The most famous example is the star that led the Wizards to our Savior born in Bethlehem. Another singular case occurred in 1066 with the unfortunate King Harold II. This was the last Saxon king of England. His short reign lasted less than 10 months. A few days after his coronation Comet Halley was visible throughout England, considered a warning of major disasters. And, quickly, his kingdom was invaded by the Normans, and their dynasty and he himself were annihilated forever in the battlefield.
In XX century, in addition to the above warning of World War II, there was another similar phenomenon in Russia.
By June 30, 1908, a meteor exploded at high altitude above the Tunguska region of eastern Siberia. The blast caused damage to over 100 km and the explosion was heard in a radius of 1500 km. A vortex of dust and ash formed and was driven by the atmospheric circulation, creating halos in the upper atmosphere, which spread throughout Europe. Exceptional brightness at night was observed for several days. In London has 10,000 km. it was possible to read the newspaper by night.
Today, a hundred years later, we can not allow to think that it was a new warning from Heaven on the vast sea of calamities that would be lowered over Russia during the following years. Five years after this country entered World War I, he would leave Four years after leaving behind nearly two million deaths. And this only come once in a bloody civil war between the Bolshevik and Menshevik with a final score of nine million people. Then he gave to start a brutal Communist dictatorship that an atheist would be extended for seventy and two years. Like all dictatorships, it also dealt a savage repression which the final outcome between the dead and deported to Siberia is calculated by sixty million people. And twenty years after the country was invaded by the Nazis and was annihilated still 10% of the population: twenty-three million people died.
If the great explosion of the Tunguska meteor was an accidental or a warning from heaven is something that can be discussed, but there is no doubt that the twentieth century was the bloodiest in history Russian.
We even have an almost identical case at the moment: the day 19 of December of 2004, one week before the big tsunami in Indonesia on December 26 of that year, an asteroid exploded on Yakarta , the nation's capital. The roar was so intense that the same is heard on the whole capital of Indonesia and some people located 80 kilometers. Seven days later, Dante was the tsunami that devastated the north and the coasts of the Indian Ocean, and their effects s'ont left perceive even in Africa, 5,000 miles. The end result of this disaster was a total of 300,000 deaths.
The Bible also follows a similar arrangement: And then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of man, and then all the races of the earth will mourn, and they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. (Matthew 24, 30).
In addition to Garabandal other apparitions also speak about the warning. Prado Nuevo in El Escorial, Amparo Cuevas says that "many think it is a simple astronomical phenomenon." In most states Garabandal: "It will be visible in the sky around the world and immediately transmitted to the inside of our soul. This is an astronomical phenomenon like a shock of stars with a burst of light and a deafening noise, but nothing will fall on us. It will be like a fire, but it will not burn the skin that will be felt well physically and internally. It will last a very short time, but will produce great effects in the world. There is no fear of dying, if not fear, or in some special cases, by the Mercy of God. Everyone will see in a very short time, the state of his mind in light of the truth of God know that He exists and that He was present at each of its faults. It will be like a trial in miniature. "Vassula indicates the same question:" Vassula in a short time I send you all a sign from above, I shine on you. (13. October 1987)
THE MIRACLE
In the same line to cause the souls the lights are sufficient for their salvation before the end of time comes, God will provide another great act of mercy to humanity and always give men a great miracle, such as posting the message of Garabandal: "This will be a great miracle, greater than that of Fatima, as big and spectacular that what the world needs. Apparently, he would cash the beatific vision. Eyewitnesses who are in Garabandal for the Miracle will have the opportunity to see in all their splendor indescribable happiness ether eternal heaven to us. The seers say that but for a special grace, those who saw them would die of happiness. Here, we found a new parallelism with Fatima. In Portugal, a hundred thousand people were present at the miracle of the sun which was announced by the Blessed Virgin above. Probably in Garabandal heaven will be opened before a multitude similar testimony that trusted the immense mercy of God. It is almost as if God shows up. Nevertheless, we should not be confused regarding the final results. The various appearances say that only "little" convert.
Though the miracle that is huge and will not have any doubt regarding its authenticity, I fear that many will prefer to see another side and deny the truth with someone else changing the mundane explanation: astronomical or meteorological phenomena, UFOs, extraterrestrials, collective hallucinations, etc.. Any thing before having to leave his most beloved vices. Accept the Truth presupposes the abandonment of sin, wickedness and vice, a price that many people are not willing to pay.
appearances indicate that the miracle will happen on a Thursday at half past eight in the evening (English time) on the day of the feast of a saint martyred in connection with the Eucharist. It coincide with a rare event in the history of the Church and who did not take place during the lifetime of Conchita (one seer of Garabandal). This could give us a clue to the date. The year 2030 is the second millennium of the death of Jesus Christ who was crucified in year 30. Although this may be another celebration.
THE GRAND BANQUET PREAPOCALYPTIUE
"And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall he also in the days of the Son rights.
We ate, drank, took wife or husband until the day Noah entered the ark and the flood came which destroyed them all.
Similarly, as happened in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
but the day Lot left Sodomee, God rained fire and sulfur, and destroyed them all.
Also will he in the day when the Son of man is revealed. "(St. Luke 17, 26-30)
In this Gospel passage we have two keys that precede the end times : Greater economic prosperity and most of humanity will live completely without knowledge of the terrible and future disasters.
is especially meaningful comparison between the penultimate versicle Sodom and Gomorrah with the end of time. Both in these two cities in the days of Noah, mankind was in a situation of extreme moral corruption and listening happened no warning from God speaking through His prophets. The punishment of fire and brimstone which burned Sodom and Gomorrah is repeated continuously in all appearances as that devastates the planet when corrupted apocalyptic times are accomplished. The world seems to perfectly fulfill the two conditions mentioned by St. Luke. We are in a stage of economic prosperity without historical precedent. And no doubt people eat and drink more than ever, in fact, a plague there now that was strange only there half a century: the widespread obesity. Excessive weight is one of the distinguishing characteristics of the physiognomy of humanity today, in fact in the richest countries in the majority of the population far exceeds the weight that would be advisable. There is more, it is calculated that for the first time in world history, they are more obese people than hungry people. It is valuable for it to finish the final plague of hunger, but these data confirm the words of St. Luke.
The second major concern of today's society is also mentioned by St. Luke, saying that "we took wife or husband." I will not prolong this too obvious question. I simply say to people younger than licentiousness prevailing in society today is not the normal thing in humanity. The youth has not been another thing, and think sexual corruption is the normal thing, because it is what sees in their everyday environments, and what the mass media transmit without interruption, but it is a distorted perception of human sexuality. Before the decade of 1960 and the "sexual revolution", the picture was drastically different. The divorce was not accepted in most parts of the world, there was a scrupulous respect to sexual intimacy, and those without differentiated biggest problems the normal thing of natural-cons. From the "revolution" mentioned, there is a sudden and rapid involution: sexual promiscuity has become general and has made result in massive divorce, decency and respect for privacy has disappeared and appeared pornography massive and pervasive, it has changed the perception of the natural thing by another concept that only identifies the self-interest. And as a result: the massive growth of sexual depravity, homosexuality and abortion.
This is the current social model: the influence of instincts over the Truth. It's the antediluvian model and the model of sodomites. And this model is just the same as Luke provides for the end of time.
GREAT APOSTASY
I tell you he will avenge them speedily. But the Son of man, when he comes, he will find faith on earth? (St. Luke 18, 8)
One of the most important signs that announce the end of time is the Great Apostasy.
wonder if Jesus when He returns He will find faith on earth. And this current weather is characterized precisely by the extreme atheism. We can say that there was not another historical time as the apostate so present days. St. Paul returns to the same subject: Let no man deceive you in any way. Prior to coming apostasy and be the man of sin, Being lost, the Adversary, who rises above all that is called God or is worshiped, sit up in person in the sanctuary of God, appearing himself as God. (2 Thessalonians 2: 3-4)
I think that, overall, it never times so atheists, irreligious and indifferent. Some examples: in the European Union the percentage of attendance at Sunday mass has dropped drastically to 50 years. With 90% attendance at Mass on Sunday in the middle of the twentieth century, to 10% on the news. These are powerful data that indicate widespread apostasy. In the former communist countries of Eastern Europe, Russia and China, the situation is similar. And this extends to certain countries considered strongholds of Catholicism. We have the case of Poland, considered for decades a bastion of Christian amid the sea of the atheist Communist Eastern Europe. But that was before. Current data are surprising. Only last year, the 2005, the Polish Church has lost 400,000 believers, a considerable amount in a country of 40 million. And it is foreseeable that this trend remains to achieve the levels of the rest of Europe, where Sunday Mass attendance is around 10%.
When this occurs in a traditional society such as the Polish religious, we can not deny that the Great Apostasy announced by St. Paul is already here.
And the situation in the rest of the planet is similar if not worse. In fact, Islamic fundamentalism with current violent appearance is not another thing, in my opinion, a desperate reaction by the obvious widespread wave of atheism that extends even by the countries of Islamic culture.
The current situation of the Church and religion in general is very different from what was only fifty years ago. The religious sense of mankind is collapsed and the general weakening of spirituality implies a loss of undoubted influence of the Church in society. This situation of extreme weakness will not delay in giving its fruit, the more obvious it is:
THE END OF THE PERPETUAL SACRIFICE
The Bible confirms what will happen one day where the sacrifice of the Eucharist will be prohibited (Daniel 8, 11). What just a few years ago it was something unthinkable, is now a realistic possibility. It is not difficult to find statements of some politicians who want to ban certain aspects of religion for several reasons: sexism, homophobia, intolerance, fanaticism, archaic faith, etc.. Every time become more difficult to preach the Gospel as written, and I do not doubt that the preaching of some biblical passages will be prohibited because they are considered incompatible with the politically-correct moral dominance. When it is already difficult to remain in society as a Christian consistent. Being a person religiously active seems a form of mental illness whose fruit for many people are just bigotry, intolerance and, at the time, religious terrorism.
One obvious consequence of this perspective is the collapse of priestly vocations. A company and the apostate and anti-religious is not conducive to vocations. If we add to this that at present the work of becoming a priest requires a certain social marginalization, it is logical that the seminars are deserts.
When finally the prohibition of religious practice is a fact, Bible prophecy will be fulfilled and religious people will take refuge again in the catacombs, which, probably, they will not leave again until the coming of the Messiah.
THE GOVERNMENT OF THE ANTICHRIST
Although all the preceding may sound very pessimistic, we must not forget that everything has been predicted two millennia ago. The Apocalypse mentions an uninterrupted succession of calamities that must necessarily follow before the end of time.
Among all, without a doubt, the worst will the appearance of the Antichrist.
This will be during this time that the Antichrist will be born, at birth, he will vomit blasphemies, he will have teeth in a word it will be the devil incarnate, He will scream horribly, he will perform wonders, he will feed as impurities. He will have brothers who, although not devils incarnate like him, will be children of evil, to 12 years, they will be noticed by the gallant victories they will win, and soon they will each head of armies, aided by the legions of hell. (The Blessed Virgin Mary Apparition of La Salette 1846)
It seems to exist a parallelism contrast between this figure and that of Jesus Christ. Both the hidden pass most of their lives, Jesus doing good, and the other evil. They will only be visible to the world for a brief period, the Antichrist Bible gives three and a half. The function of the Messiah to bring salvation to humanity, that of the son of perdition will be exactly the opposite. Jesus Christ lived among the humble and avoided at all costs to occupy a position between the powerful, exactly the opposite thing will be the Antichrist, the Bible says it will occupy the place of God and he even pretend to be God. This will be personality-reporting human, but he has some powers which will employ for evil. The Apocalypse says: She does amazing wonders: to bring down the eyes of all, the fire from heaven to earth (Apocalypse 13, 13)
For three years this man will be the "Messiah" and may dominate much of humanity. The religious and civil government will be deleted. Only violence will be the law. No government, no courts and no rules. In my opinion, the process would consist of basically seen as the Messiah that Jews are still waiting. With various ways of the world satanic witchcraft and demonic masses it may deceive for much of the Jewish people, and even global, that are in widespread apostasy, appearing as the savior of mankind. Undoubtedly it will rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem, where it will install any class of abominations. Is that the Scriptures call the desolation of iniquity, probably an image of the apocalyptic beast. If we pay attention to forecasts, we must accept that much of the world's population succumbed to his lies. His followers will have some special sign to show his acceptance of the new religion. All those who try to remain steadfast in the faith will be persecuted and thousands will be annihilated.
According to prophecy as the Escorial, he can drag to hell with two-thirds of humanity. This will be the darkest period for the Church, persecution and mass will keep the faith will be quite a feat. The domination of the Antichrist on mankind will be so great that even men can score with his band own brand, as if they were mere animals. Enoch and Elijah will return to earth for some time to warn mankind that they will punish any luck with pests due to its widespread apostasy. These two prophets will be killed and their corpses will be discussed in public. But after three days they return to life to ascend to heaven to general astonishment.
THE MOON POOL OF BLOOD
The seasons will be altered, the earth will produce nothing but bad fruit, the stars will lose their regular motion, the moon will only reflect a faint reddish glow; Water and fire will give the globe of the earth convulsive movements and horrible earthquakes which will swallow up mountains, cities. (The Blessed Virgin Mary in La Salette)
The seasons will be changed, said the message of La Salette, 1846, and now in 2007 we have the evidence: the Northwest Passage becoming navigable for the first time. The Northwest Passage is a sea full Arctic Ocean, between the Atlantic and Pacific. Until 2006, this set was completely frozen in ice and recent climate change, with global warming, allows access.
When apostasy is human in all their height and extension and the return of the Son of Man is imminent, there will be various signs in the sky. The most outstanding, mentioned in the Bible and the apparitions, it will change color of our satellite. The moon will begin to emit a certain tone reddish (Joel 3, 4-5, Acts 2, 20-21; Apocalypse 6, 12).
The final reason for this change is to warn mankind of the impending end of time - a new grace granted by Heaven for the conversion of sinners, but I fear that many people will attribute a natural phenomenon that is already clear: global warming. The emission of gas contaminant mass will follow until the end of time. Everything indicates that this phenomenon will increase geometrically, rapidly increasing temperatures around the globe. The defrost Siberia, Greenland and Canada will release huge amounts of methane now trapped in the frozen marshes, accelerating more and more climate change and causing more heat, less rain, more droughts and fires.
While many refuse to believe, this is a fact. Climate change has already caused a significant increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters such as hurricanes are becoming more and more destructive effects. Droughts are becoming more prolonged, so geographically and in duration. All this, as well, will any class of environmental problems affecting men with countless disasters: famine, pestilence, disease, etc.. The Apocalypse 16 tells us that: "And the fourth [angel] poured out his vial upon the sun, so he was allowed to scorch men with fire, and men were burned by a scorching heat. But far from repenting in glorifying God they blasphemed the name of God who had in his power over these plagues. This passage gives us another clue: the end of time will preceded by fervent heat waves, perhaps a different light from heaven, so that humanity reflect on the burn and the Hellfire already coming. The high amounts of methane released into the atmosphere and the lack of rain, with pollution and soot from massive fires in the sky painted a dirty veil. It will be something similar to what occurs in some megalopolis current smokers and factories where millions of cars burning fuel change the color of the sky from blue to a natural tan.
While the stars are indistinguishable, hidden from the thick curtain of dirt, and only the moon will pass the mantle of pollution we are having a reddish hue, perhaps a metaphor for the huge puddle of blood that is coming.
This will probably be the last warning to sinners so they repent before the end comes.
THE GREAT TRIBULATION
The great tribulation is the last link in this chain of disasters uninterrupted. Both appearances indicate that the Bible literally that "there fell a great star from heaven, burning like a torch. "(Apocalypse 8, 10). And she adds: "And huge hailstones - nearly 80 pounds! - Swooped down from heaven to men. "(Apocalypse 16, 21). The Bible also mentions "And there were lightnings and voices and thunders with a violent earthquake, no, since there are men on earth, we had never seen such an earthquake, so violent ! "(Apocalypse 16, 18). These three phenomena are related. The entry of a large meteor in the atmosphere because overheating of the surface and loosen the crust surface in the form of meteor. And it is obvious that the impact of a large meteorite hit the earth cause a massive earthquake, so intense to see it in the whole planet. Although is very may say that it is this "star", not for this reason it ceases to be a realistic possibility. At present there is a meteor that its course towards us. His name is 99942 Apophis 2004 MN4 in scientific nomenclature. It is a heavenly rock about three hundred yards that narrowly visit earth in 2029 and could go about its orbit and score a direct hit on 13 April 2036, the day EASTER RESURRECTION! An amazing coincidence of dates!
Another amazing coincidence there. As already noted above, the facts are important for humanity usually preceded by warnings in the stars. And the passage of this star in the vicinity of our planet will cause it to be possible to observe the whole earth. Probably this will be the announcement of a new disaster: the beginning of the Government of the Antichrist. It is possible, however, it is not so, but it seems likely by the amazing coincidence of dates: the Bible says that the reign of the Antichrist will last for 42 months, and it's time to take this asteroid for return to earth, this time to strike against us.
The impact will be so brutal that it will destroy a whole continent and a catastrophe of global proportions. It will literally mountains of his location and hit las pieces, and in case of fall in the sea, it will cause the islands are flying apart and disappear in the middle of the ocean. Even the entire planet can be affected or changing its orbit inclination of its axis of rotation. To make a little arrangement in which this would entail, it is enough to say that the destruction would be total of five thousand miles round the point of impact. The power of the explosion - the detonation equivalent to 1000 million tons of TNT would cause an enormous amount of heat energy which can extend the planet glowing cloud of about 600 º C temperature. The surface of the planet would be devastated by the smoke and hot winds. This would, literally, "fire fall from heaven," as provided for all appearances.
The impact of the meteor against the earth would cause huge cloud of dust like a nuclear winter that would turn day into night immediately. The skies of the planet would be covered dun dense smoke screen, dust and harmful gases from the huge explosion and subsequent fires. The sun does not shine and then they begin:
THREE DAYS OF DARKNESS
And the fifth [angel] poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast and his kingdom became dark, and it was biting their tongues for pain.
(Apocalypse 16, 10)
The sixth seal is about to be broken 3 and you will be plunged into darkness and there will be more illuminating because the smoke gushing from the Abyss will be like smoke from a huge furnace so that the sun and the sky will be darkened, 4 and My Cup of Justice I will resemble snakes, vipers. I will crawl on its belly and eat dust 5 in these days of darkness, I will crush you on the floor to remind you that you are no better than vipers ... You will suffocate and stifle in your sins, in my anger, I trample you, I trample you in my fury!
You see? My four angels stand now anxiously around my throne, waiting for my orders, when you hear the roar of thunder and flashes of lightning, remember that the Time of My Justice arrived, the earth will shake and like a star shooting, she waver from his seat, 6 eradicating them up the mountains and islands.
Entire nations will be annihilated, the sky will disappear like a scroll rolling 7, as you saw in your vision, daughter. Great agony occur on all inhabitants, and woe to the unbelievers! (Messages of Vassula 18/02/1993)
Again we were with the number 72. According to the prophecy of Saint Pio of Pietrelcina, just before the parousia, come the final purification of humanity. The fiery clouds cover the earth devastated all sinful humanity. They would be 72 hours of total darkness, during which Hell would be drained of its demons. A terrible human hunting would take place on the surface of the earth. The appearances indicate that two of every three humans stoop to hell for three days of darkness. The demons would work without rest to drag into the abyss all those marked with the symbol of the Beast (mortal sin).
The other third of the world must remain locked in their houses, praying, observing and avoiding the outdoors. The parallelism between these facts with those of Sodom and Gomorrah is obvious. The world today looks like a huge mess corrupt to the marrow by any class of corruption and vice, between which they emphasize particular - As in Sodom and Gomorrah - sexual sins, sins so widespread that neither consider themselves already. In fact, I fear that even it is possible that they far outweigh these two biblical cities because Sodom and Gomorrah, there was a notion of sin. The sodomites have known they were fishing, although they do not have imported it.
In Sodom is the current world, virtue is sin, and sin is normal. The most obvious example of this are "weddings" homosexuals. The company has institutionalized corrupt as good and desirable unions against nature, and sends to prison clerics who dare to preach that homosexuality is a social cancer ... without comment.
Just as a Lot and his family, to whom the angel not to see back Sodom burned by the heavenly fire, during the three days of darkness the men who are in a state of grace shall remain in inside their houses and should not watch the outside. The horror will happen in the world during these 72 hours of darkness probably exceeds human capacity.
THE PAROUSIA
Since then
together, they questioned him, "Lord, is this now the time where you're going to restore the kingdom to Israel?"
He replied: "It is not yours to know times or seasons which the Father has fixed by his own authority.
But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. "
At these words, in their eyes, he rose, and a cloud hid him from their eyes.
And they were there, staring at the sky as he went, suddenly two men dressed in white were on their side;
said to them: Men "of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? one that was removed, this same Jesus will come like this, in the same way you saw him go into heaven. "
Acts 1, 6-11
